So yesterday, right before lunch, I started to feel something.....something that made me stop and say "Huh?"
Turns out I'm sick....for real sick. Running a fever, snotting, eyes watering, body aching. Which I've got to say is bullshit. Seriously. And I'll tell you why.
I have the next five days off of work. Yes. FIVE DAYS STRAIGHT. And I'm sick. I have three parties I'm supposed to attend tomorrow and I'm sick. Why couldn't this happen next Monday? When I can legitimately call in sick to work? Can somebody answer me that?
My husband said this morning, as I'm lying in bed watching my fifth episode of Grey's Anatomy of the day, "We have plans tomorrow, so of course you're sick." Asshole.
But he does have a point.
Two years ago, we went to Vegas. Guess who was so sick, I could barely walk? And this past summer, we went to New York. Who came down with a serious sinus infection? Yep. It was me.
It's almost as though my body goes into some sort of rejection any time fun is introduced to it.
So here I am, half way into my first day off of an extremely long weekend, one that I had all these plans of getting wasted and dancing on a table somewhere, and I've sneezed about twenty times in the short amount of time it's taken me to type this post. And my nose is chapped. Already.
And to top it all off, I'm on my period.
WTF? Happy effin' New Year to me.....
OMG that is the worst thing I have ever heard. I am so sorry.
ReplyDeleteYou should still call in sick to work on Monday. Seems legit to me.
I might be blind by then. I feel like I'm going to claw my eyes out, they are so itchy, so it COULD be legit by then.....or my nose could fall off.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if that would be an acceptable excuse for my boss....
most often you work hard all the year through and then as soon as you get some downtime you end up falling ill, i think it's basically your body slamming the brakes on when it has chance!!
ReplyDeleteGod has it in for you... haha
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better by now!
